FROM BEST SELLING AUTHOR ANTHONY HOROWITZ.

Susan Ryeland has had enough of murder.

She’s edited two novels about the famous detective, Atticus Pünd, and both times she’s come close to being killed. Now she’s back in England and she’s been persuaded to work on a third.

The new ‘continuation’ novel is by Eliot Crace, grandson of Miriam Crace who was the biggest selling children’s author in the world until her death exactly twenty years ago.

Eliot believes that Miriam was deliberately poisoned. And when he tells Susan that he has hidden the identity of Miriam’s killer inside his book, Susan knows she’s in trouble once again.

As Susan works on Pünd’s Last Case, a story set in an exotic villa in the South of France, she uncovers more and more parallels between the past and the present, the fictional and the real world – until suddenly she finds that she has become a target herself.

It seems that someone in Eliot’s family doesn’t want the book to be written. And they will do anything to prevent it.

Never disappointed with Anthony Horowitz-clever, thoughtful plot lines and always a twist! Also love that the female lead has been sympathetically portrayed. Not a stereotype. A1 as usual.

I enjoyed reading the first two books in the series but Marble Hall Murders had me fully engrossed. I really liked the audio book it’s very well narrated by Lesley Manville and Tim McMullan.

The best of all three of the Magpie Murder stories.

This is another brilliant novel by Anthony Horowitz, his ever twisting tale and descriptive narrative of the surrounds is like watching a movie as I listen and exceptional narration as always.

Fabulous story, a Web of mystery and intrigue. Sorry it's the final chapter. Leslie Manville is excellent and will watch or listen to anything she does. Thanks Anthony Horowitz

Another great Pund book

A long and complex mystery but one that draws in the listener anxious to find the next event in the storyline. Very enjoyable, occasionally frustrating but always very satisfying.

Another Horowitz masterpiece!

Anthony Horowitz is the absolute best in the genre (gentle crime with a literary edge, paying homage to Agatha Christie). His plotting is unparalleled. A hugely entertaining read with multiple twists and layers.

Brilliant again
